I’ve seriously been SO excited to show you these! You’re about to fall in love with this couple, I guarantee it.
Heeeere youuuuuu gooooo… bbmk workshop #10!
Shawn is the brother of Sara, a bride that we photographed back in 2008… when we met them then, they were newly engaged. Since then, they’ve gotten married and have a perfect son named Grayson. When Jessica emailed and said she’d be interested in being a workshop model… I couldn’t have been more excited!
While processing these, my face hurt from smiling so much… No lie!
Are you kidding me with how much love is in this image?! AHHHH!!!!! My favorite
Shawn’s dimples?! LOVE THEM!
You can’t tell by looking at these images, as the two of them look SO stinking happy, but the weather this day… well let’s just say that if it weren’t a workshop session, we probably would have rescheduled. It was pouring rain all the way up until the session and the wind chill was in the teens. To be frank, it was down-right miserable. These two handled it like champs! On behalf of the workshop attendees, we are so very thankful for the two of you!
Loving those boots!
Whoa?!
If you guys could see where we photographed this… You’d be throwing us high fives! Mike’s favorite
A smiling/cheering hamburger and fries?! Don’t mind if we do!
Then we ended our session in a field…
Jessica, you are so ridiculously cute…. I can’t stand it!
OHHHH how we adore you two!!!

How they met, as told by Jessica :: “We met at Champs in Keystone during a Dave and Rae performance night. We actually had a college class together, but never officially met because Shawn was a nerd in the front of the room and I was social in the back of the room. Ha! We saw each other everyday for two weeks after first meeting, which is how long it took him to get up the nerve to kiss me!”

Freezing cold and wet? Honey badger don’t care! Mike, I love you so stinkin’ much!

A huge shout out to Renaissance Albums, Totally Rad, Colofshift, ProDPI, Simply Color Lab and VSCO for all of your support. And a MAJOR high five goes out to Kate Newman for coming to help out… It wouldn’t have been the same without you!
On the surface, photographing engaged couples and married couples seems to be the same thing, though it’s actually not the same at all. There’s a completely different kind of love between two people who’ve been married for a long time/have raised children, verses those who’ve been dating for a couple of years. There’s a different kind of comfort, passion, security, love, confidence that they’ve developed. These two were the epitome of all of those things. They love the shiz out of each other.
See what I mean? My favorite
Let’s take a second to talk about Sarah’s dimples. ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THOSE THINGS?! 
Oh, I should mention that it was absolutely freezing this afternoon! You sure can’t tell by looking at these…
You two are ridiculously cute!
To all of you out there who are married and have never had photos taken alone… you owe it to your future generations to make it happen. Look at this image through their sons’ eyes in 40 years. Yep, told you it was important.
The workshopees were laughing about where Mike was shooting from. I had no idea so I aimed my camera below, without looking through the viewfinder… and laughed when I saw the resulting image!
bobbi+mike workshop, round 6
Kelsey’s always been so fashionable!
I absolutely adore Anthony. He loves Kelsey so incredibly much. Anthony is intelligent, patient, handsome, humble, driven, badass, genuine and couldn’t be more perfect for Kelsey. He’s actually a lot like my Mike, if I do say so myself!
The light this afternoon was sexy!
Those boots?! Yes please!
Have I mentioned how beautiful she is?! Holy cowabunga!
Love. Their hands say everything. 
…and by quick I mean that these images were taken in about 15-ish minutes.
They’ve been married for 9 years… together for 14. The love, respect and trust they have for each other is obvious… if you’ve ever been in the same room with these two, you know exactly what I mean!
They’re from Southern Louisiana.
Oh, I haven’t mentioned yet… the have five children. FIVE! The latest… twins! :D 
Right at the very end of the quickie session, I had this kooky idea to really show their size difference.
Then I walked up closer, “Laura, I want you to give me the ‘What?! You have a problem with hot backpacks?!! Bring it…’ ” I seriously couldn’t stop laughing about this! Actually, I’m still not done laughing about it! HAHAHAHAAAA!!!! Thanks you two for playing along with my silliness!
We’d love to photograph a real session of you two + your five.
